Chelsea 8/11 to beat Everton in Sunday’s Premier League showdown

Competition: Premier League

Market: Chelsea win

Odds: 8/11 @ 888sport

Two sides who really find themselves battling it out at opposite ends of the Premier League table, Chelsea will make the trip to Everton on Sunday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, only continuing on what has been a nightmare run of form this year, Everton are really at the heart of a relegation scrap. In their 32 Premier League matchups so far this season, they have recorded eight wins, five draws and 19 defeats, scoring 34 and conceding 55 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 29, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat down in 18th and two points adrift of finding a route out of the bottom-three. As for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 2-0 loss away at bitter rivals Liverpool, Everton have now managed to win just one of their previous six Premier League contests. Likewise, it should also be noted, the relegation scrappers have won just one of their last four meetings against Sunday’s guests and will know that they face a huge ask here.

As for the visitors, while Chelsea might have been disappointed to have only collected a single point in midweek, they will be smelling a golden chance on the road here. In their 33 Premier League matchups so far this season, they have recorded 19 wins, nine draws and five defeats, scoring 68 and conceding 40 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 66, the Blues open this weekend’s fixtures sat third in the standings and cruising towards another Champions League finish. As for their recent run of results, despite being last seen playing out a 1-1 draw against Manchester United on the road, Chelsea have lost just one of their previous six matchups across all formats. Given the huge recent gulf in class between the two sides, we’re backing an away victory here that can be found at generous odds.
